MULTIGEN WELLNESS HEALTH ARTICLE #39 – Hormone Therapy vs. Testosterone Therapy – Know the Difference
“I think my testosterone is low… there are so many clinics out there—I don’t even know which one is right for me!”
You’re not alone. At MultiGen Wellness Online, we hear this nearly every day. As a full-spectrum endocrinology and hormone therapy clinic, we’ve taken thousands of calls from people feeling confused, frustrated, and burned out by the health system.
My name is Joshua G. Crampton, founder of MultiGen. For years, I personally answered the phones and conducted every initial health consultation. After hundreds of nearly identical conversations, it became clear that many people were facing the same problem:
They had gone to a local “testosterone clinic,” spent money, followed the protocol… and didn’t feel better.
So what’s the real issue?
The core issue is simple:
There is a major difference between testosterone therapy and hormone therapy—but most clinics don’t explain that.
Worse, many “wellness clinics” are only offering testosterone therapy, without any regard for the rest of the endocrine system.
They market “hormone therapy”—but they’re not treating your hormones, they’re just prescribing testosterone. And in many cases, they skip essential labs, overlook nutritional deficiencies, and bypass standard medical ethics—all while hiding behind e-sign waivers and legal shields.
Here’s what happens next:
Patients call us after months of treatment at other clinics, still experiencing fatigue, mood swings, low libido, weight gain, or brain fog.
Why?
Because their true root issue was never addressed.
It wasn’t just low testosterone. It was a full hormonal imbalance—one that requires a much deeper clinical approach.
At MultiGen, we treat the entire system.
Yes, we treat testosterone—but it’s just one part of the full picture.
If your testosterone is low, there’s a 99% chance other hormones (and nutrients) are out of balance too.
That’s because your endocrine system functions as one interconnected network.
When you adjust one hormone, the others shift too. That’s why isolated treatment causes so many people to feel worse—or plateau entirely.
A Word of Warning for Patients:
If you walk into a clinic and your bloodwork only includes estrogen and testosterone, and they proceed to treat you based on that alone—they’ve already failed you.
Responsible hormone therapy must also assess:
-
Hematocrit levels
-
Estradiol
-
PSA (for prostate)
-
Vitamin D
-
B12
-
Liver & kidney function
-
Thyroid hormones (TSH, free T3/T4)
-
Cholesterol/lipid panels
-
And more, depending on the patient’s profile
Anything less is cutting corners—and putting your health at risk.
We Treat Humans, Not Dollar Signs
At MultiGen, our goal is NOT to keep you on therapy for life.
In fact, we’re the opposite of the “profit-first” model that dominates the industry. We believe in restoring balance, not building dependence.
We’ve had patients ask:
“Is testosterone therapy for life?”
And the honest answer is:
It might be—IF you’re at a clinic that only treats testosterone and plans to cash flow you until the day you die.
You Deserve Better
Many of our patients come to us with horror stories—feeling manipulated, misled, or trapped in expensive protocols that were never tailored to their needs.
We’re here to change that.
At MultiGen Wellness, we offer free health consultations because we believe that clarity and care should come first—not the sale.
If you’re seeking answers, or if you’ve been through the ringer with other clinics—we’re here to listen.
